I haven't done this with a tablet before, but I'm currently working on a project for my older Camaro.
Adding a touchscreen running off a raspberry PI.

The software I'm using isOpenAuto Pro. It's an OS that supports Android Auto.
I'm using it mostly for the AA support, but I'm hoping as the software is developed more features are added to it.

It does have screen mirror of your phone, so you could use that if you truly want a Android Experience in the car.

Here is my build for the Camaro.
